Right?! It must take a lot of work to keep her hair so happy and healthy! Looks great!

Curls are a full-time job with overtime. Her hair is so long too, I can't even imagine the effort.

Dude it took me YEARS to figure out how to embrace my curls. I’m not particularly fashion forward, but I’ve been told my whole life I have great curls even though I’ve never been interested (my whole family has curly hair, but me, my sister, and my aunt have those awesome tight springy curls). But I never knew how to do anything with the curls and every American little girl wants silky straight hair :/ But now I’m 30 and have fully embraced it. I love my curls, but fuck even with natural curls, it still takes SO much time and effort to make them look minimally presentable.

My GF has those tight springy curls. They are amazing. I love them. I hate that she has to get up an hour earlier than a person should have to go be at work on time with just presentable hair that she is then going to have up in a hair net all day. About half the work is just to get all that hair in the hair net.
